"It is agreed by the Court that the next court to be held for the county to be on the lands of Jeremiah Worsham where the same is established near Hickey's Road." In August 1777, the Court of Pittsylvania was removed to Cherrystone Meeting House Spring, and in the absence of court buildings the meeting house was repaired and given over to the use of the court, where its sessions were held until after the close of the Revolution. The Cherrystone Meeting House Spring is situated in the ravine to the north of Depot Hill, and in this ravine were located the first court buildings at Chatham. The justices presiding on that court day were Thomas Dillard, John Wilson, Benjamin Lankford, Stephen Coleman, Crispen Shelton, George Carter and Reuben Payne. Among the many matters disposed of by the court a license was granted William Short to keep a tavern at the Court House; Joseph Terry was appointed surveyor of the road from the Halifax line to the Old Town, as Peytons-burg was often called; Colonel Wilson, Major Lankford, Captain Witcher and Reuben Payne were ordered to let the building of a prison and also the "Hull of a Courthouse thirty two by twenty four Shingled Ruff."
